A (used to be close) couple friend of ours got divorced this past spring. The wife had an affair, her husband caught her and they decided to divorce. Well the wife is still seeing the OM and they became engaged after her divorce.

 

Well, I come to find out that this OM is cheating on her....

 

all I can say is.....I think its poetic justice for what she did to her husband...and quite frankly....theres a part of me that thinks she deserves everything that comes to her....

 

Not sure why I even care....maybe some projection on my part for the anger I have becasue of my wifes affair...I dunno....

 

and I know I shouldnt feel this way....but a part of me, the selfish part, cant help but laugh....

We could say the 'karma bus' is a bitch :p .... but I think it's more likely that the old cliche of "If they'll cheat WITH you, they'll cheat ON you" is proven true once again.

 

It's doubtful the OM was losing much sleep over helping her to break her marriage vows. It follows that the state of monogamous marriage isn't necessarily something he holds dear.

Why you shouldn't?

Perhaps a saint would not laugh, but saints sound like a boring lot. :)

 

It's a sad story, though.

What goes around, comes around - And yeah, Karma can be a b!tch when she bites back...Maybe now she'll understand the pain she caused her husband while cheating on him.

I've been where her husband is, so I tend to chuckle when I hear about stuff like that. Chalk up one for the karma bus! :)

Karma doesn't usually work out so neatly but when it does it is funny!

 

A bit concerned to hear that you are still so angry Thumbs. I am not in a position to give advice but you seemed pretty sorted for a while then pretty miserable for a long while. Things not going so good?
